Declassified Documents Online: Twentieth-Century British Intelligence, An Intelligence Empire

Abstract

Gale, a Cengage company, introduces many previously classified documents from The U.K. National Archives in their digital collection Declassified Documents Online: Twentieth-Century British Intelligences: an Intelligence Empire. The archive provides over 500,000 pages of declassified UK government documents on activities pertinent to British intelligence, decolonization, and security policies from 1905 to 2002. Sourced from five government departments, these unique primary source materials support research in twentieth century history, politics, and international relations by highlighting British operations in a time of global conflicts and shifting alliances.
